Hello again…..we took a break to catch up on our rest for a few days.  We arrived in Salisbury on Tuesday and on Wednesday morning we were off to see “Blenheim Palace”.  Queen Anne had this palace built for Duke John Marlborough after he won a great victory over the French in Blenheim, Germany.  (about 1730).  If it weren’t for this man, it is said that, England might be speaking French today!!  Well I think this is a well deserved reward!  His descendants still lived here until last fall (2014) when the old Duke died.  The new Duke lives nearby with his young family.  Maybe he will choose to move back into the Palace when his children grow up….who knows?  Hey….if he doesn’t want the place….I could get used to living like this!
